[quote=Anonymous]Almost a year ago my DH father passed away. We were close with FIL and were the only ones in the family accepting of his new wife. As an “outsider” myself, we bonded and enjoyed each other’s company. When FIL passed, I did the bulk of offering support to the wife. I send cards and talk to her on the phone. But there in lies the problem: she wants to talk for HOURS about the same topics, and it is nearly impossible to end the call. I need some tips on quickly ending the call! When I say she’s relentless, I’m not kidding! Last winter on our call, my kid fell and scraped himself up really badly. I was like, “Gotta go, Mary. Liam is bleeding!” She was like, just set the phone down and I will wait. When that didn’t work, she asked me to call back after! We had been talking two hours at this point! I know she’s lonely and enjoys talking about her husband, but sometimes I need to go! So please, help me before this next call! [/quote]
